etc. Mr., Forsyth found quite a
number Of trees on the ranch, some
Of which had attained considerable
size. One Of these was cut down,
and its bark stripped off and brought
to Honolulu for analysis. Mr.. Geo.
w. Smith, analytical chemist, of the
firm of Benson, Smith Co., under
took the work, which has now been
completed and the result given be-
low. From this analysis it will be
seen that the bark from Ulupalakua
is of superior quality, and therefore
commands high price. This is a
contradiction to the belief expressed
by some, that these islands are not
adapted for cinchona production,
and it augurs hopefully for the
future of this industry. 1t was
previously demonstrated by expert
ment that the cinchona tree would
thrive in certain districts on the
islands, and it is now demonstrated
by analysis that the bark is of ex-
cellent quality Following is Mr..
Smiths letter to Mr.. Dowsett, con-
tanning the anylysis:-

Dear Sir: l beg to acknowledge
receipt from you of 23 lbs. of Gin

results than the analysis of bark

in Ceylon and Southern India.

WEDNESDAY. JULY 27. 1887.
I'm SIAIu QUO"

Said an acquaintance this morn
ing, on Merchant street, II suppose
you newspaper editors have all been
bought by the new Cabinet. Why
do you think that? Because"
said he, 'you all say they are a
wonderful set of men, who can do
no wrong" Hold on a bit We
have said nothing of the kind. The
press Of Honolulu is certainly dis
posed to give the new Ministry a
fair chance to effect the reforms to
which it is pledged. The BULLETIN,
speaking for itself, is certainly not
bound to any set or class of men ;
but it always endeayors, according
to its own light, to be on the side of
right, justice, and fair play; and it
will no more support the present
Ministers than it did their predeces-
sors, in what it may consider a
wrong policy. ''Yes, yes" said
our impulsive acquaintance, 81
know you haven't gushed quite so
much as some of your contempo-
raries, and you have given a poke
or two; but why don't you stir
them up more? / cannot see that
they are doing anything. Things
are as they were, 'in statw quo.
Neither inclination nor time per-
mitted full discussion of this point
on the street, but we will now have
a little talk with this gentleman and
those who think like him-quite a
considerable class of the community.
The evil of being too slow is
generally less than that of being too
fast. 1t is better to look cautiously
where you are going, than to rush
like bull at a gate. 1t is wise to
learn the best and safest road to a
place before starting out on the
journey. Every step in advance
made by a traveller out of his
reckoning, only serves to retard his
intended progress. IF, as our friend
would say, he remains Sin statu
q@o," he avoids greater trouble.
1t is quite probable that the Minis
tiers have discovered at Government
House greater muddle than they
anticipated, and while they are try
ing to learn how to shape it into
order, everything else must remain
pretty nearly Gin statu guo." Be
sides, nobody can do much in the
line OF action which shows visible
Improvement, with an empty treas
ury and piles of debt.
To be sure, there are scores of
energetic young and old fellows in
the community, whose energy is
accelerated by the lightness of their
upper regions, who could, in their
own opinion, regenerate the land
from end to end, and make eyerv-
thing as right as clock, money or
no money, in much less than a
month"; We hear them talk every
day. 1t is improving to listen to
them. Their conversation suggests
to our minds policy in a passion,
craftsmanship going by steam, bun
KUN in hustle. We picture them
flashing like a meteor through the
,hunder-struck Government House.

The "grab" by which the school
children of the State have, in some in
stances, been robbed of one-half of
their township funds, is being discuss
ed lively by the press. IL shows one
thing clearly, and that is the fact that
the School Boards have had to pay
one-half Of the funds to get Mr.. Rut-
land, q lawyer, to discharge duty
that was incumbent upon the Auditor.
If the Auditor is incapable of disehar-
ging his duty, and Mr.. Rutland is com
petent, we should elect Rutland to the
office now occupied by Mr.. Steele
Give him the Office and perhaps be
will discharge this duty for nothing.
Mr.. Steele should certainly be I'M
peached and turned out of Office, for
issuing warrant for school funds to a
private individual, (Rutland) when he
held no written authority from the
School Board to draw said money, as
is said to have been the case in Ouach-
ita Parish DeSoto Democrat.
